Did you know that 31% of Australians* felt lonely around the holiday period last year? So, what can you do to help combat the stress that comes with the silly season, or help your personal or professional connections if you notice they’re struggling?

We were lucky enough to have mental health advocate and founder of the Heart On My Sleeve movement MITCH WALLIS join us to share his powerful story plus some practical tips to support people who need it (spoiler alert: they’re the opposite of what most of us have been doing!). We’re sharing his number one insight on mental health and seven practical tips to help you have a healthy, happy and supported holiday break.

✅ Mitch’s #1 support insight 

While traditional conversations revolve around IQ and ‘solving’ or moving away from the problem, the best way to help someone is by having a real conversation. This strategy is about moving toward the issue, using EQ and relationship tactics like connection and understanding to really listen and help the person see you’re there to help. 

✅ Mitch’s 7 support tips

1️⃣ Slow down on solutions – stay curious instead of assuming you know what’s best
2️⃣ Check in, don’t tick boxes – engage proactively with care instead of ignoring conversations that need to be had
3️⃣ Keep a lookout – notice changes behavioural changes instead of being too busy to pay attention
4️⃣ Tell them why – validate their feelings instead of just listening
5️⃣ Build emotional resilience – let things land abd sit in the mud instead of filling in silence
6️⃣ Reduce risk by addressing risk – ask directly about safety instead of ignoring the elephant in the room
7️⃣ Show, don’t tell – role model healthy practices instead of doing the opposite of what you’re telling others to do

So, save this post, check in with your friends, colleagues and family and remember that you have the power to help over the holiday season and beyond. Big thanks to Mitch for teaching us that relationships are key to combatting stress, anxiety and depression – we everyone’s last few days in the office are spent celebrating and investing in the people and relationships that shaped your year!
